I have stayed at several properties this year, booked them through LHW and always have recieved the full benefits of the program. Even at Kempinski, they have a different code in the program, they honored my membership.
I do wonder what they want to add. Create yet another so called "luxury travel program"?
Here is a list of a few places it worked:
Palace Berlin: standart roo to business suite 2x
Kempinksi Hamburg: standart room to suite 2x
Palace Berne: standart to superiour 1x
Hay Adams Washington. standart to luxury 2x
maybe one will recieve these treats in generally, dont know. Was nice to get them anyways.
